Call for Papers: Computational modelling has long been a highly influential research method in the study of human language processing. In the last decade or so, the impact of computational simulations has further increased with the availability of models with human-scale knowledge of language statistics and the development of powerful linking functions (based on, for instance, information theory and distributional semantics) between model predictions and human processing, as well as the avail

The PRIN 2020 project DIETALY (Destination Italy in Tourism Translation Over the Years) has investigated how Italy has been represented, translated, and circulated as a destination for international tourists across languages and media over the past century. Focusing in particular on the period from the 1920s to the 1950s, the project has examined the role of language and translation in shaping Italy’s international image during years marked by Fascism, economic crisis, and post-war reconstructio

The computational humanities and social sciences (CHSS) constitute a rapidly growing area that works with massive amounts of unstructured textual, linguistic, and sociocultural data. Despite the scale and complexity of these datasets, CHSS researchers overwhelmingly rely on tools that are either slow (e.g., pure Python), fragmented across ecosystems, or difficult to integrate into modern workflows that require both prototyping and high-performance computation. This minisymposium aims to intro

The purpose of this workshop is to investigate the relationship between morphology and syntax, and in particular to investigate the extent to which morphological generalizations can be accounted for in terms of purely syntactic operations and conditions. Can morphology and syntax be unified under purely Merge based theories with the same principles?

Final Call for Papers: Theme Session Title: "Between Entrenchment and Imagination: Cognitive, Crosslinguistic, Corpus-Based, and Multimodal Perspectives on Idioms, Creativity, and Figurativity" Idioms occupy a unique position at the intersection of figurative thought, linguistic structure, and creative language use. With their relatively inflexible forms and conceptually dense meanings, idioms often invite local adaptations, humorous reinterpretations, multimodal elaborations, and other in

Call for Papers: The conference Construal in Language and Discourse invites contributions that examine construal as a central concept for understanding meaning construction across language, different forms of discourse, cognition, narrative, and multimodal communication. In Cognitive Linguistics, construal refers to how speakers and writers conceptualise experience by selecting, structuring, profiling, foregrounding, backgrounding, and simulating aspects of a scene. This conference adopts

SUMMARY This book has emerged from an academic network “Syntax Beyond the Canon”, sponsored by the German Research Foundation between 2019 and 2025. The contributors share the idea that, for anything one might want to say, there is a default – “canonical” – way of saying it, and they are interested in how, and why, a language-user might instead choose an alternative, “non-canonical” way of expressing himself (where the alternatives considered relate largely to word-order differences). Thus
